Roots Strong believes that at the roots of all sustainable change in the world is our youth. Inspired by the upbringing and rich heritage of her parents in Jamaica, founder Lyndsay Archer established Roots Strong in 2015 in hopes of empowering youth and their communities through advancing access to necessary resources that are imperative to the development of children. In the fall of 2026, Roots Strong will be hosting its first-ever Free Book Fair.
